Russian folk song


Does anyone know the Russian folk song Gloria Jean sings in this? I picked out the word "Prekrasnyj" but that's about it.

YAYAYAYAY IM GAY!!!

It is one of the most famous and beautiful songs from Russia with a slight Gypsy flavor called "Ochi Chorniya" (Dark Eyes). The first verse goes like this:
OCHI CHORNIYA
OCHI STRASHNAYA
OCHI SGUBLIYA
I PRESKRANAYA
KAK LYUBLYU YA VAS
KAK BAYUS' YA VAS
ZNAT', UVIDEL VAS YA V NEDOBRIY CHAS....

translation:
Dark eyes
Terrifying eyes
Alluring eyes
and beautiful
How I love you
How I fear you
You know, I saw you at the wrong time...

Featured prominently in the 1940 version of "The Shop Around the Corner"!
